Speirs Gumley are quite possibly the most incompetent company I have ever dealt with. They charge through the teeth for managing the property and then fail to do so, not including commissions they are paid through insurance products.
We have issues with our property, namely the roof, and they simply don't care, it has been ongoing for years and they are yet to resolve it. They take days to respond to any emails and when they do they just repeat the same nonsense.
